Preparation
- Step 1
In a small heavy-bottomed pot, over medium-low heat, stir together ½ cup of the maple syrup, the brown sugar, cream, butter, rum and salt. Cook, stirring constantly and scraping the sides and the bottom of the pan, until the sauce is thick and coats the back of the spoon, about 10 minutes. Pour into a heat-proof container and let cool a bit before making the sundaes.
- Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the remaining maple syrup with the nuts. Scoop the ice cream into dishes. Top with the warm sauce and maple nuts. Grate some of the chocolate over the top and serve with a dollop of crème fraîche and more chocolate shavings if you like.
